Flatpak, I’m pretty sure that’s what the software manager installs right? I tried again today and it gave me the same shit. I do want to keep trying to get it to work though if you have any ideas!
i don’t know how well versed in linux you are so ill try to be thorough:
but overall it seems lutris is just running another instance of bnet than you set up in bottles, and might be running on system wine instead of proton.
see, these programs each have a “prefix” which is fancy for the folder the emulated windows C: drive is, the games aren’t showing because you are probably running it in another prefix, would be my guess. you can try pointing lutris to the bottles prefix, or simply set up bnet anew.
as for the crash, check the lutris config and ensure it’s running on proton-latest or the latest proton-ge (right now it’s v10). you can do that in lutris settings>runners>wine>cog icon. you might be missing runtimes in the lutris prefix.
temporarily lagging your mouse/pc while games load on wayland is an issue i had in a much older version, which is why i asked you about it. you are probably already running latest if you got the flatpak though. running it from the terminal with flatpak run net.lutris.Lutris then trying it again might output useful information pertaining to this issue on the terminal.
moreover, you can use lutris’ log feature (up arrow by the play button > show logs) and see if it tells you more about the error you are experiencing when you run it. this is great for general troubleshooting. also, protondb.com is where people post fixes for games that might be stubborn, even if you are not using steam to launch it.
it’s hard to make an often simple diagnostic from far away, but these are the things i’d try first. let me know if i can help you further and i will try.
